    canitcd ~tetcs ~cnetc WASHINGTON, DC 20510 December 6, 2019 Robert D. Manfred Jr. Commissioner of Baseball Major League Baseball 245 Park A venue, 31st Floor New York, NY 10167 Dear Commissioner Manfred: We write to express our opposition to Major League Baseball's recent proposal to eliminate the Major League affiliations of dozens of Minor League Baseball clubs, including the Lowell Spinners club, the Class A Short Season New York-Penn League affiliate ofthe Boston Red Sox. This scheme would cause significant economic damage to the City of Lowell, eliminate an important piece of the community's cultural footprint, and disappoint baseball fans of all ages­ all while doing long-term damage to the game's ability to keep and grow its fan base. For over 20 years, the Lowell Spinners have brought fun and entertainment to baseball fans across the City of Lowell, the Merrimack Valley region, and the entire Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The team's important affiliation with the Red Sox, and its proximity to Boston and New Hampshire, have allowed Red Sox fans from all over the region to enjoy a Spinners game and see players that will move on to play for the Red Sox and other Major League Baseball teams. The Lowell Spinners provide an affordable family outing and have remained a strong partner for the entire community. The team's name pays homage to the City's history as the home of the American Industrial Revolution, and the mascot, the Canaligator, references Lowell's six miles of canals. 1 In addition to the local cultural importance of the Lowell Spinners, the club has maintained a vital economic partnership with the City.

  • The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 26, 2011 * the Boston Globe
    The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 26, 2011 * The Boston Globe Catcher was receptive Peter Abraham Jason Varitek reached the height of his professional success in 2007. The Red Sox won their second World Series in four years and he was at the center of it all as the catcher and team captain. Life was a series of champagne celebrations and adulation. But Varitek‘s joy was tempered with the knowledge that his marriage of nearly 13 years was coming to an end. ―You could see it in his eyes that he wasn‘t getting much sleep,‘‘ teammate Josh Beckett said. ―Those were some rough days for him.‘‘ It was only the beginning of what Varitek now calls ―a time of transition‘‘ in his personal and professional life. He filed for divorce 10 months after the Series, then lost his job as the everyday catcher midway through the 2009 season when the Red Sox traded for Victor Martinez. In 2010, just as spring training was starting, Varitek learned that his father had lapsed into a coma and was near death. He rushed to Orlando and spent one agonizing afternoon searching for Joe Varitek‘s living will. ―Doctor‘s orders. My dad had put it somewhere and I spent hours trying to find it,‘‘ Varitek said. ―It was probably the most difficult thing I‘ve ever had to do.‘‘ His father pulled through. But Varitek‘s career took another downturn when he broke his right foot last June, the injury leading to speculation that his tenure in Boston — if not his career — could be over.

    The Boston Red Sox Sunday, September 4, 2011 * The Boston Globe A grandiose win for Red Sox Peter Abraham For a few minutes yesterday afternoon, everything was as it was supposed to be for Carl Crawford. He sent a grand slam sailing into the stands in right field at Fenway Park in the fourth inning and arrived at the plate to hand slaps and hugs from teammates Adrian Gonzalez, David Ortiz, and Mike Aviles. As the sold-out crowd cheered and some even chanted his name, Crawford walked back to the dugout smiling. His shot helped propel the Sox to a 12-7 victory against the Texas Rangers. ―That‘s the guy we used to play against. He changes a game just like that,‘‘ Ortiz said, smacking his hands together for emphasis. ―One swing, look what it did.‘‘ But even a grand slam can only change the statistics slightly at this point in the season. Crawford is hitting .252 with 11 home runs and 52 RBIs. After stealing 47 bases last season, he has 17 this year. His .690 OPS is a whopping 161 points less than it was in 2010. Whatever personal goals Crawford may have had when the Sox signed him to a lucrative seven-year deal last winter won‘t be attained. That contract has sat on his shoulders like an anvil from the first day of spring training. ―I don‘t look at the numbers,‘‘ Crawford said. ―I guess when [the media] reminds me, then I know. But other that that, I just try to take each new day as it comes.
